Strategy You Can Feel, Conversation You Will Never Forget

We help you run simulations and forecasts to explore how value actually flows through a system and to envision multiple emerging scenarios. Our games are designed and optimized for lively tabletop conversation, not private rumination.

Ripples and Reactions

Our signature version of Jerome Glenn's classic Futures Wheel. Map the cascade of consequences from any disruption or decision. Teams trace first, second, and third-order effects, building a shared picture of what's coming before it arrives. Play it around a table with paper and cards, or run the whole session online.

The Game

Ready, Set… Reshuffle!

The futures game shows you what's coming; this one drops you inside it. Map how value moves through your ecosystem: money, but also reputation, data, trust, and access. Then reshuffle. AI is redrawing who holds leverage in every industry, so teams simulate where they'd live in a possible future, hunt for the gold left on the table, and find the position that wins there first.

Ice-Breaker

Half-Baked

Teams fuse two mismatched ideas into a startup pitch and sell it on the spot. Fast, funny, and a dead-simple way to warm a room up for the real work.

Domain Map

Maco Modo

A guessing game played across a domain map. Teams peek, deduce, and race to place things where they belong. ("Maco" — Trini for a curious eye.)

Emerging Tech

Deal the Deck

Twelve emerging technologies, one industry, thirty minutes. Teams draw tech cards at random and argue a real path from each one to their own P&L, including the ones that sound absurd.

Business Models

Fifty-Five Ways

Most new business models are recombinations of fifty-five known patterns. Teams draw three at random and rebuild their own model from them.

Scenarios

Four Futures Before Lunch

Two axes, four worlds, one industry. Pick the two uncertainties that actually matter, build the quadrants, name the four futures, and argue about which one you're already living in.

Perception

See Something New

Built on Visual Thinking Strategies. The room studies one ambiguous image in silence, defends every claim with evidence from it, and discovers how much it invented.

Trend Hunting

Whodunnit

A whodunnit where the culprit is an emerging trend and the clues are live Jedi Signals. Teams sift the evidence and race to name the suspect. Everything unmasks in ten minutes, and every player leaves with a PDF keepsake of the case.

Rolling Out
